Hug-a-Tree
Inspired by the search for nine-year-old Jimmy Beveridge in 1981 in southern California, and initiated by the caring heart of Ab Taylor, the Hug-a-Tree and Survive program teaches children how to survive in the woods should they become lost. The program was developed to educate children in a select few of the most basic and vital survival principles. It was specifically designed for children between the ages of 7 and 11 but can be effective with slightly younger and older children.
The program consists of a trained presenter—usually a search and rescue volunteer, police officer, park ranger, or similar uniformed individual—following a tightly scripted presentation that has three primary parts:
- An introduction (of the presenter and program),
- An entertaining video presentation for children, and
- A few practical suggestions and demonstrations.
Many children are alive today because of their experience with the Hug-a-Tree and Survive program.

One of the most important steps toward ensuring your own safety is having a personal safety strategy in place before you need it. NRA’s Refuse To Be A Victim® program teaches the tips and techniques you need to be alerted to dangerous situations and to avoid criminal confrontation.
Seminars are held across the nation and are open to individuals of all ages. Today, thousands of federal, state, and local law enforcement officials and civilians from across the nation utilize this popular program in their crime prevention and community policing initiatives to help protect their communities.
Corporations, educational institutions, and community centers have also adopted the program. All told, more than 120,000 people have benefited from these seminars.
The Refuse To Be A Victim® program is not a firearm or self-defense class. It is a seminar that will help you improve your personal safety strategies and will provide you with valuable information that you can apply in every area of your life.
